I'm still here xD But I guess the star symbol doesn't work to seperate stories anymore so they all look like one confusing mess. So I'll just have to seperate the different parts some other how. But yeah...I'm going to go watch sailor moon so here it is!


Sonic could still hear the others talking from the garage underneath him. The garage definitely wasn't sound proof. No wonder you could always tell when Tails was working.

They had this crazy idea that Amy was working for Eggman. And of course, Sonic refused to believe any of it. In fact, he actually was dying to see her. She had changed so much, look-wise, and he wanted to see if her personality changed as well. Hopefully she would be easier to hang out with now that she's older.

"Shoot. That's what we forgot. It's Amy's birthday today. Am I the only one that remembers?"

With Amy...

Amy could feel her heartbeat and breath quicken when she caught sight of Tails' workshop. She had first mind to turn around and run. But the ironic thing was that she was doing this for Sonic.

So instead of running, Amy brushed off her white sundress and tightened the strings that tied around her neck. She then took a deep breath and stepped out of the woods behind Tails workshop.

The afternoon sun was setting, causing the air to be a little more breezy. The wind blew Amy's dress around, giving her that pretty girl with her hair blowing in the wind look. Well that's what Sonic thought when he saw her. She looked amazing, especially with the sunlight in the background. The soft glow enhanced her features.

Her eyes seemed to have this perfect shine the way the sun was hitting them. She looked like she could be a model. Her tiny frame looked perfect in the sundress she was sporting. It fit her just right. Sonic didn't know if her bangs were blowing in the wind or if they got stuck over her eye or what, but it made her look even more cute.

Sonic pushed himself away from the edge of the roof so she wouldn't catch him staring. He waited to hear the voice of somebody greeting Amy, but he heard nothing. He got curious and slowly peeked over the edge of the roof.

"What are you doing?"

Sonic jumped and turned around. "Eh…nothing."

Amy raised an eyebrow and shrugged. "Listen, I just wanted to say sorry about earlier. I wanted to talk to you but…"

"Oh, don't worry about it. We can catch up now." Sonic patted the shingle next to himself.

Amy felt herself beginning to perspire heavily and a familiar feeling washed over her. "I-I think I should go."

Before Amy could even blink and turn to leave, Sonic was in front of her holding her arm.

"Please don't. I just got to see you again. I don't wanna leave things off on a bad note from when I left. Please," Sonic begged.

Amy couldn't resist the sparkle of determination in Sonic's eyes and gave in. Only so she didn't have to stare him in the face any longer.

Amy watched Sonic sit back down in his previous spot. She gave him a small smile and tucked her dress under her before sitting down. As soon as she felt the roof under her, she jerked over to the side. She had accidently placed her hand on Sonic's hand. He had noticed, but as fast as it was there, it was gone. A light blush appeared on Amy's face. She was clearly embarrassed. Sonic chuckled and put his hand on Amy's hand.

"It's okay, haha. Accidents happened." Sonic smiled and took his hands off Amy's.

Amy looked confused. The look on her face tickled Sonic even more than her blushing. It tickled him so much, he began to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Amy asked. She was so embarrassed she put her hands over her cheeks and turned away.

"Ah, nothing. You just look different than how I remembered you."

"So you're saying I look funny!" Amy clenched her fist and instantly was on top of Sonic with her fist drawn back.

Sonic backed away and put his hands up in defense. "No! No! It's not that."

"Oh."

"Something's never change," Sonic laughed. He was happy he actually found a little piece of the old Amy he remembered.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing," Sonic said quickly.

"Mhm." Amy shut her eyes and kept them closed.

"Amy?"

"Yeah?" Amy patiently waited for Sonic to say something, but he didn't. So she finally decided to open her eyes and look at him.

"Happy birthday," Sonic whispered.

"Hu-" Amy couldn't even finish her sentence before wind was going down her throat. The wind was whipping her hair around in her face, leaving little stinging sensations across her cheeks. Everything was going by so fast, Amy could barely think about anything but to hold onto the person for dear life that was holding her.

Amy flung her arms around Sonic's neck and squeezed as tight as she could. She never remembered Sonic going this fast when he was holding her. She didn't think it was possible. Everything was a colorful blur flying by. Almost like another world where time stayed still because everything was going so fast.

"I said happy birthday," Sonic yelled over the wind.

"Is this your idea of a birthday present!" Amy yelled. She felt her eyes widen immediately.

Sonic jumped over a stream and landed safely on the other side.

"Don't remember our little runs together?" Sonic joked.

"I do, but they weren't like this!" Amy clutched harder onto Sonic. Not just because she was scared, but to be spiteful.

Too bad it didn't really bother Sonic. In fact, he enjoyed it. The sweet smell of Amy intensified due to her clinging on so tightly to him. She smelled really good, like sweet strawberry candy. That's nothing to complain about.

Seconds later, Sonic screeched to a halt, almost falling completely forward.

"Here we are, birthday girl."

"I'm eighteen, so technically, I'm not a girl."

Sonic rolled his eyes. "Sorry, lady."

Amy rolled her eyes back. "So where are we anyways?"

The two were standing by a small cement fountain with cupid spraying water out of his arrow on the top. Gray tiles neatly covered the area around the fountain. On the sidewalk circling around the fountain, there were small wooden benches to sit on. To top it all of, neatly trimmed bushes circled around the whole area, protecting it from wandering eyes.

"A park…that nobody ever comes to," Sonic answered.

"I can see that," Amy said sarcastically.

Sonic smirked at Amy. "I don't remember you being so…"

"So?"

"Sassy."

"I've changed since you've last seen me." Amy huffed and playfully slapped Sonic on the arm as she brushed past him. She curiously peeked over the edge of the fountain to see if there was water in there.

"Looks like you need to be taught some manners." Sonic ran up behind Amy and grabbed her sides. With an effortless stretch of Sonic's arms, Amy was lifted up over Sonic's head.

"Sonic!" Amy yelled. "Do it and you'll regret it!"

Literally.

"Ah, I'll take my chances." Amy flew over Sonic's head and splashed into the water.

Her head popped up shortly after, making tiny ripples across the surface of the water. A spurt of water came out of her mouth, which almost looked like the water being shot from cupid's arrow at the top of the fountain. Sonic doubled over into fits of laughter.

"Ohh, Sonic," Amy said sweetly.

"Hmm?"

Amy splashed to the side of the fountain and roughly yanked Sonic's arm into the water beside her. Seconds later, Sonic resurfaced. A frown was present on his face, which kinda scared Amy. She never had seen him frown so much in one day.

"I bet you regret what you did now."

"Mhm."

In a flash, Sonic tackled Amy into the water and held her under for about a minute. When Amy resurfaced, she looked heated. Sonic squirmed under her gaze.

"Uhm, heh." Sonic laughed nervously and thought of an excuse. "Nice dress."

Amy looked down and realization hit her immediately. She was wearing white! Amy's face turned completely red. "I need to go."

"No, haha stay here."

"Why would I-" A burst of wind smacked Amy in the face before she even finished. Sonic was gone as well.

Water completely seeped through Amy's white dress, revealing Amy's…well, undergarments. Her hair had begun to tangle and goosebumps traveled up her body every five seconds due to it now being dusk; the wind had gotten chilly because of it.

"Here."

Amy jumped and almost completely fell back into the water, but thanks to Sonic's fast reflexes, he managed to catch her by the arm and pull her back up.

Sonic held the jacket out to Amy. "T-Thanks," she stuttered and grabbed the jacket and slid her arms through it.

The sweater was long and draped down to Amy's knees. Almost like a dress. "Who's is this?"

"Oh. Its mines. Training in the morning got pretty cold in the winter," Sonic explained.

Amy took her ankles out of the water, instantly earning Sonic's attention, and gladly accepted Sonic's hand to support her weight while she got out. The dress seemed to weigh her down, along with the sweater. Amy's hand was still clasped in Sonic's after she has gotten out.

"Uhm..."

"Sorry," Sonic mumbled and quickly let go of Amy's hand.

"So…you wanna go sit over there?" Amy pointed to a small bench in the surrounding area. This particular bench had a trimmed bush behind it with neon colored flowers.

"Sure."

Sonic and Amy slowly walked over to the bench and sat down. Amy made sure to sit arms length away from Sonic.

"I don't bite. I'm a hedgehog, not a snake."

Amy giggled. "I know."

Sonic grabbed Amy's arm and pulled her closer towards him. Their legs were touching by the time Sonic had stopped pulling.

"I don't remember you being this…" Amy trailed off purposely.

"This?"

"Touchy."

Sonic raised an eyebrow. "Whaddya mean?"

"Before you left, you didn't wanna be around me."

"Well, for one, you toned down a lot. And two, I missed you."

A light blush began to creep onto Amy's cheeks. Instantly she felt bad for being happy. Knowing why she was there, she couldn't let herself be happy.

Sonic smiled. "So what did you do while I was gone?"

"Uhm, a little of this, a little of that."

Sonic raised an eyebrow. "The group said everyone only saw you during the holidays."

"Yeah…I was doing a little training of my own. How do you think I got on the roof?"

There was a long pause before Sonic spoke. "I…yeah." Thinking about it, Amy could already jump high. She wouldn't need to train for that. Something didn't match up. If she did train, she probably would have fought Shadow back.

"So how was your training?"

"Hard," Sonic said quickly. He never did like talking about it. Leaving his friends was the hardest part. Although, he had done it many times before, this time was the hardest by far. It was something he just didn't like to remember.

"Oh." Amy got the hint it was an uncomfortable subject for Sonic and didn't press any further.

"Is there anything you haven't mastered?" Amy asked.

"Hmm, no."

Amy cursed mentally. Eggman's not gonna be to happy to hear Sonic still doesn't have any known weaknesses other than water. "Oh, cool."

"You know, the pretty girls that always ask the hero their weakness, always end up telling someway or somehow. So even if I did know, I wouldn't tell you."

Amy huffed. "Are you insulting me inside a compliment?"

"Oh, I don't know. Am I?" Sonic smiled mischievously.

"Bet I could get it out of you."

"Really?"

"Really," Amy purred.

Before Sonic could react, Amy's leg swung onto Sonic's lap and her arms wrapped around his neck. Her lips curved into a mischievous smile.

"Scared?"

Sonic gulped and gently pulled Amy's arms from around his neck and put them to her sides. "Definitely…you shouldn't sit like that."

Amy rolled her eyes and took her feet off Sonic's lap. Suddenly reality hit Amy; she had to get back to Eggman. He was probably getting ready to call a search party in her absence. Which is the last thing she needed.

"I should get going. It's getting late."

Sonic laughed. "It's only 8:30."

Amy laughed at herself. "How do you know?"

Sonic nodded his head towards the giant brick clock tower in front of the park they were at. Indeed, the small hand was pointing to the eight and the big hand on the six.

"Haha, oh."

"Well, why don't we head back to the workshop?"

Once again, Sonic could see hesitation written all over Amy's face. She must have had an idea of the gang's suspicions. Something was obviously wrong with her.

Amy bit her tongue. "Uhm, I don't think that's a good idea."

"Oh, come on. It'll be fun."
